1. In response to the International Development
Committee deliberations recently, the DTI undertook to provide
the following attached information:

(i) Annual figure for prosecutions for corruption
1993-99.

(ii) Latest OECD review on Codes of Conduct
(2000), though you should be aware that some of the documentation
they reviewed is now 3-4 years old (not printed).

(iii) R v Raud case (not printed).

2. We also offered to provide information
on the OECD's evaluations of other countries in respect of their
compliance with the Bribery Convention. The best way to access
this material is through the OECD website which contains all the
OECD Bribery Working Group Phase I country evaluations. The address
is: www.oecd.org/daf/nocorruption/report.htm
